Hytale Something like this normally wouldn't cross my radar, but because Riot games put some of their muscle behind something that wasn't League of Legends, it piqued my interest. Hytale; a RPG based off of Minecraft with some community servers. From the article, it looks like there is a single-pla...

He wants a very large number of objects, powerful AI, lots of auto-LoD, procgen tools, and pretty texture graphics. What Josh needed simply didn't exist. It's no surprise he had to write his own engine. I was trying to think of any title that involves a lot of moving AI objects on the screen that p...

I came late to the whole X series. X3 with all its expansions had been out a few years, and I don't count Rebirth to be part of the 'main' series so I never checked it out. I also am of the type that if I get into a game, I prefer to have that experience from the previous games so that I'm not missi...

Borland Turbo C++ forever! :mrgreen: What is this "++" of which you speak? ;) Borland's Turbo C was how I taught myself C in 1987, and used it to write a data-migration program for work that did in five minutes what had been taking all night. (Some time with a hex editor was also necessary on that ...

...yadda yadda yadda.....ass-kissing community...Josh is mentally unstable...etc... Re: People kissing his ass for years If you're referring to the forums, then yeah. Why? Because the forums here were not created to be about how bad he is or LT is. Much like the walmart.com site doesn't tolerate pe...

In essence technical feature creep was what killed LT. Modding was not supposed to be in LT, and in the end, this is what I think prevented the game from releasing. I'm not a programmer though so I could be wrong there. I just think that if Josh had worked on getting gameplay worked out, just as he...

No one expects him to finish the code into a releasable state. The project ended anyways. No need to make it neat. I wholeheartedly agree with this, but this is Josh we're talking about. He's still a perfectionist at heart. And while it pains me to say it, this is also what caused the project to ve...

It was a little more than just the monolithic code engine. If we take a look at any large game, most of the time the developers won't code it in a straight-forward language. You have the low-level pieces, which is mostly a script interpreter, and then you code the game in that script. This allows a ...

I don't tend to talk to older people about my beliefs on sexuality because they *tend* to have a strong conservative view to my strong liberal view and it just ends up being butting heads. Can we also have an 'ick' division...? 'cos talking to some people about anything related to sex is just ewwww...

Ahh, DWM, I'm sorry to hear about your troubles with the business. You didn't deserve it, and I hope you too realise it wasn't a reflection on you or your family, or your actions even. Sometimes, life is just cruel. I'm very impressed with your attitude coming out of it though, well done indeed - y...

After seeing so many pour their hearts out, I felt as though I needed to add a bit myself, from personal experience. I already relinquished my mod hat awhile ago, so this is me being me, not me speaking as someone who was a trusted member of the forum team. Many of you know I used to run a small bus...
